Only a few days had passed before we were healed enough to go to police station. I still had something like a cast around my broken ankle but we made it. We were both questioned on what happened even after it all had happened, of course we mixed up the story a little. Maria was a captive I had met, which was true, but there another murderer that we escaped from just by a little. We got our stories together and everything added up mostly so we were let go.
My ankle was almost healed after some weeks had went by, I had asked before about Chelsea but there was no response on the subject. She was home upset thinking I died, when she heard u was in the hospital it took her a few days to muster up the courage to even come see me.
But none of that really bothered me right now, at those moments in and out of the hospital, I was only worried about a few things... Who wanted me dead? I asked Maria before but she didn't know who the anonymous tip was because she was just a slave so she didn't really know either. No matter what, I had to find out then because if they had payed people enough money to kidnap and try to kill me then they could really kill me in their next attempts.
When me and Maria got better we left the hospital, I was pulled aside by Chelsea when Maria had went to the bathroom. I found out Chelsea was scared of her and didn't wanna be around when she was. She didn't like the kinda look she had in her eyes still, something murderous about her made Chelsea off about trusting her.
I didn't know what to do or say to that but I took her warning into precautions at the time, maybe things would have been differently if I hadn't taken what she said. She left after that and I took Maria home with me and my mom. I showed her around and days flew by quickly but the questions that still lingered in my mind didn't fade away at all. They were always fresh on my mind, 'Who was in the barn?' 'Who had payed to kill me?' 'What if Maria was really trying to kill me still?!'
I didn't know what to think at the time until I just confronted Maria about them. She had the same answers as before, "I didn't know much as a slave and I don't wanna hurt you anymore! You saved me Lily!" I still didn't know, "Then let's go back to the barn.." Maria gave me a look. "What are you gonna do back there? You wanna back to those bloody kitchens be my guest but I won't stand it! I won't go back!" After awhile I had convinced her to go the tomorrow in the afternoon after we ate. She told me no the whole day so I had decided that I'll be going by myself then if she wouldn't come with me, I needed to find my killer this time. If I didn't the next time I was kidnapped they would make sure I was dead so I didn't say as much as they know now. Maybe this time they'd kill Maria or my mother this time! Who knew what would happen to me next? I had no clue...
The next day started and me and Maria went to school, I also forgot to add before in this that Maria had enrolled into school with me so we went and finished our day or work, Chelsea went nowhere near me with Maria next to me. Of course... she had those dangerous eyes. I was getting ready to leave after we ate and she looked at me. "Your stupid, you know that right?" I just nodded, "it's careless... but I need to do it. You know that too." We stared at each other for a moment, she sighed with her hand behind her head scratching the back of her neck while her other hand was on her hip. "Your not brave, you are stupid... and that's why I'll just have to go with you." I hyped up excited before she finished, "But just know I'm doing it because I have to go and take care of you because your stupid! Not because I wanna go or anything like staying here and worrying about you while your gone for a-bit." I smiled and hugged her, "Maria!" I was so happy!! She stopped being pouty and moody to hug me back tightly before we set off, back to barn we would head.
